That will never hit the XDP hook of the interface, those packets just go over loopback. XDP processes packets on ingress, when they arrive *on that interface*. So you'll have to try the ping from outside the machine itself (although from the NO-CARRIER flag on the interface it looks like it's not actually connected to anything?). For testing, it can be useful to use virtual Ethernet (veth) devices; they have full support for XDP. The XDP tutorial will help you get setup to use those: https://github.com/xdp-project/xdp-tutorial -Toke
